ROTATING GOLF TEE, PRACTICE DEVICE

Abstract

This invention's focus pertains to keeping a constant height and setting for a minimum of 100+ shots in only one setup, and allowing for the user to spend more time practicing their shots instead of wasting time putting the golf ball in a standard golf tee for every practice shot and saving some waste of material.

Claims

1. We claim that the golf practice tee system allows different heights of the ball to be set for various kinds of shots and can be used in different situations with different models for grass, concrete, and fake grass.

2. We claim that the system uses 4 stainless steel stakes that lock it down to the ground to allow the user to hit a minimum of 100+practice shots. AOn claim 2, has four stakes to lock down the system, the base of the system includes four clips that house the stakes when locked into the ground. BOn claim 2, the system allows anyone to easily put and remove the stakes into the ground from the clips at the base, the product comes with a double-sided tool that helps to push/lock the stakes into place, and to unlock/pull the stake out. COn claim 2, when inserting the stakes into the ground, the base will purposefully expand the stakes apart to create an even stronger adhesion to the ground. DOn claim 2, the stakes will be made in a sort of long U form and be created using stainless steel to reduce rusting and corrosion.

3. We claim that the system uses a flexible arm that can rotate 360 degrees in order limit any kind of stress on the driver, the flexible arm can also be used for left and right-handed players and reversed to get a closer or father shot from the ground. EOn claim 3, the flexible arm is made of a different kind of material from the rest of the system to reduce any kind of stress on the driver upon impact. FOn claim 3, where the arm and the post connect, the arm contains washers to reduce friction between the two parts. GOn claim 3, the flexible arm will also include a hole that will be used for other accessories like a rubber ball for practice in a home or backyard environment, and other accessories. 1.1 On claim 1 the system includes locking washers that allow the user to easily set heights for the ball for various kinds of practice shots. 1.2 On claim 1 the different models allow you for more versatility when using the product include a steel plate, container with either sand or water, and container for a soda or beer cooler. 1.3 On claim 1, the different heights can be set differently for personal preference, age, or different golf clubs.
